The Hong Kong Institute of Occupational Therapy (HKIOT) was set up in 2002. We aim at promoting Occupational Therapy in Mainland China. We have been working closely with many partners in China to organize rehabilitation projects. We had organized international conferences successfully in Qingdao (2005), Guangzhou (2008) and Hong Kong (2012) respectively. We had increasing number of participants in the past three conferences. Delegates were from different countries, including, USA, UK, Australia, Canada, Kuwait, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.
This is the fourth time the HKIOT will organize the "2015 International Occupational Therapy Conference". We are pleased to have the Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine jointly organize the conference in Shenzhen, China PRC, from 20-22 March 2015.
The theme of the conference will be on "Function, Lifestyle, Health and Happiness". We have invited Professor Sharon Brintnell as one of our keynote speakers. You are welcome to share your experience and your research work on the above topics. Besides, we will have workshops and therapist clinical skill competition.
We would like to extend our warm invitation to you in joining this international conference to demonstrate the spirit of Occupational Therapist in two straits and four places (Hong Kong, China, Taiwan and Macau) and promulgate our aim of promoting Occupational Therapy service in Mainland China.
